Maybe a stupid question but...

I already have a 120gb sandisk pulse and a 128gb crucial m4 and just got a 256gb m4 off a friend for nothing... is it worth sticking it in for ***** and giggles and run 3 ssds along side my 2tb, or just stay where i am?

Use it, its a superior drive to the The sandisk at least.

i cba with reformatting my rig!

 

[stulid]

Have a look at the IOPS of it vs the Sandisk.

 

[CinderzFTW]

haha i got too much crap on my pc to even think about reformatting atm... plus i dont have the time lol

 

[stulid]

Sell it then.

Macrium reflect is you friend. An hour backup and restore and you are away.

 

[CinderzFTW]

i could do the whole clone etc, but yea I think sell is the right option here!

If you do decide to sell up or even use it yourself, just remember to update the firmware to fix the 5200 hour bug if you haven't already

 

[CinderzFTW]

cool thanks

Sell it and buy 2x 120gb samsung evo and RAID0 them! Bam pretty much instant boot Time!

Umm lol... I have 1.25TB of SSD storage in my main gaming rig and want more... hmmm

If you can't be bothered to re-format... just clone the drive... it will only take less than an hour and there will be no fundamental change to your system other than a bigger boot drive.

Or simply use it for installing new programs... you don't have to install everything to C:

With crucial m4 drives. Make sure they're on the latest firmware.
